Here in Saskatchewan, all drink containers (cans, plastic bottles, glass bottles, and tetra paks) except milk have a deposit of between 10 and 20 cents added on when you buy them. Then, you bring the empty container back to the return depot, and get your money back.
Many people who camp here leave their empty containers as a donation to the park. We try to bring as many empties as we can back to the depot every Wednesday in the little blue car, but of course the little blue car can only carry so much!
And after a busy weekend, we simply have too many empties!

- Trying To Beat The Heat
Ok, so if a few readers happen to be a bit chilled because you live on the Pacific Coast, especially if you're lucky enough to live on the coast in Oregon, let me try to warm you up. Or at least make you appreciate the chill. Since about...
- Flying Home From Aruba With Local Brew
Some beers in Aruba, like locally brewed Balashi or Amstel Bright only found in Aruba, Bonaire or Curacao and make a unique souvenir to bring home to remind yourself of your sunny Aruba vacation. Though Balashi can be found in cans, Amstel Bright is only...
